Extradural cavernous haemangioma simulating a disc protrusion
- 1. Flinders Medical Centre, Bedford Park, SA (Australia). Departments of Medical Imaging and Neurosurgery
Description
Cavernous haemangiomas confined to the epidural space are rare and are therefore infrequently considered in the differential diagnosis of spinal epidural masses. In order to draw attention to this diagnosis, a case in which an epidural cavernous haemangioma simulates a lateral/foraminal disc protrusion is presented. Copyright (1999) Blackwell Science Pty Ltd
